Answer:

The original price of the book was $12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 0.2(3x) + 10 = 40
30x - 2(3x) + 100 = 400
   30x - 6x + 100 = 400
           24x + 100 = 400
                     24x = 300
                         x = 12.50

Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of -2 and y-intercept of 2.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

y= -2x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Slope-intercept form:</u>

y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope is -2, m= -2.

Substitute m= -2 into the equation:

y= -2x +c

Given that the y-intercept is 2, c= 2.

Substitute c=2 into the equation:

y= -2x +2

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

\texttt{Area = Length x Width}\\\\\texttt{Area =}x\times (30-x)=30x-x^2\\\\\texttt{Area =}30x-x^2

<h3>Area, A(x) = 30x - x² , as a function of the length (x).</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Creative Landscaping has 60 yard of fencing with which to enclose a rectangular garden.

If the garden is X yards long, express the Gardens area as a function of length

Let x be the length of garden

So perimeter of rectangle = 60 yard

Perimeter = 2 * ( Length + width)

60 = 2 * ( x + width)

Width = 60/2 - x

Width= 30 - x

\texttt{Area = Length x Width}\\\\\texttt{Area =}x\times (30-x)=30x-x^2\\\\\texttt{Area =}30x-x^2

<h3>Area, A(x) = 30x - x² , as a function of the length (x).</h3>
